As filed

With the snowstorm last week, the sale had to be canceled, but this week, with some decent weather, there was a heavy supply of weaned feeders with quality offerings. attendance was good and demand was high. Compared to 2-weeks ago feeder steers and heifers sold $8.00-$15.00 higher on average, except for some 4-weight steers and heifers that sold $20.00-$30.00 higher on a uneven test. Strong demand for slaughter cattle this week, selling $14.00-$15.00 higher
